A Southern California transplant and a former distance runner, Emily fell in love with strength training after a few injuries. As a strength instructor, Emily wants to spread the joy, confidence, and of course, endorphins that she gained from strength training. She’s passionate about helping people live their healthiest, happiest lives – all while jamming (probably without coordination…) to EDM and hip hop.

When she’s not teaching at SPIRE, you can find her reading, hiking, hanging out with her dog and cat, sipping coffee, or writing! And, she teaches yoga so ask her all about flexibility and mobility!
